On Dec. 18, 2014, President Barack Obama signed an Executive Order establishing a 21st Century Policing Task Force to collect information, data and comments from experts and the public. There are seven sessions scheduled across the country. Cincinnati, Ohio will host two of the seven sessions, both at the University of Cincinnati: Listening Session on Policy and Oversight and Listening Session on Technology & Social Media.

These sessions are conducted by an 11-member Task Force. The 11 participants have been tasked to provide a report and recommendations to the president by March 2, 2015. Each session will host experts who provide testimony to the Task Force. The final hour of each session will be dedicated to comments and questions from members of the public.
